Texas Republicans lob racist insults at Rep. Gene Wu as he leads Democrats' walkout

Gene Wu, who led the exodus. Among those engaging in the anti-Asian taunts are state Sen. Mayes Middleton, a Galveston Republican who also happens to be running for Texas attorney general. On Monday, the first day the Texas Legislature was unable to meet due the Dems' absence, Middleton fired off a tweet inquiring, "Is Gene Wu back in China?"
